Charcot foot carries a high risk of complications, including deformity, skin breakdown, ulceration, and infection, all of which can increase the risk for hospitalization and amputation.
This clinical brief reviews how foot temperature monitoring supports earlier recognition of active Charcot and why longitudinal, at-home monitoring can provide more actionable insight than a single in-clinic temperature check. It also highlights internal Podimetrics data showing a steady increase in the percentage of patients under management with self-reported Charcot over the past three years.
You’ll learn:
- The main complications tied to Charcot, including rocker bottom deformity and skin breakdown
- Patient and provider benefits of temperature monitoring in Charcot patients
- Why longitudinal temperature trends matter during phase transitions in Charcot care
